Marisa M.

I have coached kids and adults of all ages, abilities and skill levels. I’ve spent the last ten years giving private lessons after having coached at primary and boarding schools, universities and clubs in England as well as at the NCAA collegiate level. I spent 2 seasons as an assistant coach for the nationally ranked Gettysburg College Bullets women’s lacrosse team. I have a Level I Coaching Certification. I also have experience in the recruiting process as a player and a coach and can assist in a player's college search.

I played Division I lacrosse at Columbia University and I also played in Reading, England for the Reading Lacrosse Club as well as the England West Regional Team. I graduated as a four-year starter, two-year captain and the all-time leader in points and assists. All-Ivy and All-Region selection.

The session will really be catered to the individual player(s). We can focus on stick skills, the basics of throwing and catching, cradling, shooting, or basic offensive and defensive skills. For the more advanced players we can focus on offensive strategy and technical moves, defensive strategy and different defensive systems, advanced shooting techniques, etc. We can also work on fitness, agility and food speed. We can cover a wide range of areas or one specific area for an entire session. I can assess the player to see what they most need and what they would best be suited to work on in our first session if desired.
